Thanks so much to everyone whose replied so far

Hmmm...I didn't realise than Blood Brothers is more a musical than anything, that's what put me off going to see 'Wicked'

War Horse doesn't really grab me, tbh - a story about a guy missing his horse? Guess I'm uncultured LOL! Can't find any discounted tickets either so I am paying either top price or lower for lower tier seats.

I just found £10 tickets for '39 Steps', which looks more fun - can anyone recommend that?

It's a tricky one, but I wouldn't mind paying more money for a show we both enjoy (but obviously we won't know till we've been!) but going to see Ghost Stories put us off just going to see things for the sake of it, it you get what I mean - the tickets for that were only £5 each plus booking but I would have rather spent my very rare night off doing something else

Anything else going on in London at the moment - like any good circusy shows, something like 'Stomp' or 'Afrika Afrika' kind of thing? I really wanted to see 'Into the Hoods' a good while back but missed it by one day!

GO TO BLOOD BROTHERS! I've seen it 11 times, including twice last week. It is great. Don't worry that it's a musical. Best shows are 1=Blood Brothers, 1=Les Miserables, 3 We Will Rock YouYOU MUST GO TO SEE BLOOD BROTHERS. it's an emotional roller coaster!

As exmouthred says lol - Blood Brothers IS excellent - my 21 year old ds loves it and has seen it at least half a dozen times already - and we're seeing it again in Sept X) !

Also Les Mis is superb - must have seen that at least 4 times now too

Is Spamalot still on anywhere ? OH and I saw that a couple of times in London and on tour - and would happily see it again - sooo funny

Spamalot is great, but no longer in the West End. It is on UK tour though.

Come see it in … Come see it in Eastbourne[url=http://www.eastbournetheatres.co.uk/What%27s_On/show.asp?showID=2242]http://www.eastbournetheatres.co.uk/What%27s_On/show.asp?showID=2242[/url]

Good advice. The current cast of the UK tour is amazing. Sean Jones, who plays "Mickey" is a true genius.
